Let the number be y.
One third of y = (1/3)*y = y/3
This is decreased by 6; y/3 - 6
And it equals 8
That means:
y/3 - 6 = 8
y/3 = 8 + 6
y/3 = 14
y = 3*14
y = 42
The number is 42.

Answer:
10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that DC is parallel to AB, then triangle DOC is similar to triangle AOB.
However, even with this assumption, there is not enough information in the diagram to solve for DO. We would also need to know the length of CO. Then we could write a proportion:
DO / (DO + 20) = CO / (CO + 24)
Edit: OD is 2 cm shorter than OC. If we call x the length of OD, then the length of OC is x+2.
Putting this into our proportion:
x / (x + 20) = (x + 2) / (x + 2 + 24)
x / (x + 20) = (x + 2) / (x + 26)
Cross multiply:
x (x + 26) = (x + 2) (x + 20)
Distribute:
x² + 26x = x² + 20x + 2x + 40
x² + 26x = x² + 22x + 40
4x = 40
x = 10
So the length of DO is 10 cm.
2c is a factor of both terms.
.. area = 2c(c+1)
Possible expressions for length and width are
1, 2, c, 2c, c+1, 2(c+1), c(c+1), 2c(c+1).
